Signs to stop smoking



Recommended Posts

They are letting you have the surgery knowing that you smoke?

My doctor wont, My insurance wont cover any benefits either if you smoke.

Ok so you quit before surgery and started again 4 days after? This will impede healing time tremendously.

I do hope that you are able to stop for good. Mind over matter ;)

You run a high risk of causing ulcers, necrotic tissue, not healing properly. You need to stop now, why go through life altering surgery to get healthy and wreck it all with the cancer sticks

You really need some nicotine Patches to help you quit. Non smokers don't get the addiction side of smoking and it is more involved than just doing it. I quit using Alan Carrs quit smoking now book, smoked from 13 then at 36 read that book and couldn't wait to get to the end of it to stop! No grieving the loss of the cigs at all. You aren't allowed to quit until you finish the book either, believe it or not lol. Good luck.

It's NOT WORTH IT! Stop it! You're going to damage everything you went through and hope to accomplish in the future just to smoke? Didn't they tell you that you couldn't smoke afterwards? Please don't do it. Stop smoking.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
